Good basics – Not all questions are difficult. Most of the questions only appear difficult because you busy were learning the tough chapters and left out the basics.

Practice tests – The more you practice the more confident you are. Helps improve your speed and approach towards questions. There are always a few favourite and repeated questions. Practice tests will help you find them and answer them in less than a second.

Prepare wisely – Know which chapters have more weightage and concentrate more on those chapters. You CANNOT make mistakes in those few chapters.

Time – Time is the villain. No matter how hard you study and how good your basics are, if you can’t manage your time, everything’s going down the gutter. Do not waste time on questions you don’t know. And mock tests help in learning how to manage time.

Read the question properly – In the process of managing time we tend to misread the questions. So read the question properly.

Scores – Every time you take a test, check your score. Check where you stand and always aim high. If you want to end up in top college, you can’t be happy with your score if it is not very very good. Having said that, do not get disheartened if you don’t score well.

There is always a next test and a scope to improve.
Health – Last but not the least. You can’t become a good doctor if you are not in good health yourself. So take care of yourself. Nothing is more important than your health.
